Hello. I have an Afterlife, for which a TL072 opamp is specified.
I think that my chain might be improved by having a TL072 in it but I've always had drive problems with TL0 op amps. I would never connect one to the output jack of anything. This is repeated experience talking.
So here's the Afterlife and here's one side of a TL072 pumping up control voltage into a 100uF capacitor.
Has anyone noticed any problems with this?
Thank you kindly.
Nope. I've built a couple of Afterlifes (Afterlives?) now, always with TL072. I've had no issues with them in anything.
No issue. I had issue with a 5532, pretty sure it was an impedance issue. I used TL072 and OPA2134 in that comp and couldn't really tell the difference (ended up using the 2134 just in case haha)
I started with a 2134, but it was flaky and oscillatey. When it worked, though, it sounded CLEEEEN.
Today I reverted to a TL072 and it sounds a little pasty but it's stable. Only thing is, there have been a few times I had TL0-equipped pieces work fine at home and refuse to work on stage.

Hmmm that's strange what you're describing with the 2134. Mine sounds amazing. Weird
I think I rather like the sound with the TL072. Today, anyway.
I'm going to have to learn to not pursue technical perfection so much.
